The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Celine was different from Angela. In Earth's terms, one could be considered an Angel and the other a Demon, but the issue was that the demon was named an angel.

I can see the differences between them. Though they look the same, their demeanour appears to be different. Even the shades of their hair are different. One is like Destructive Fire while the other is Life-breathing Fire.

It's good that there are differences. It would be like enjoying different flavours. It would be boring if both of them were the same in all aspects.

First I should concentrate on how to get Angela. Maybe she can pave a path to Celine.

"They should be confusing me with my sister. Every time, the same issue. Anyway, let them form their own conclusions. It's not like I would get close with them after this year", Celine muttered to herself.

She may have muttered but to my ears, those words are clearly spoken.

It looks like this isn't the first time someone has confused her and her sister. With Angela's character, there should be many who were angry at Celine or feared her because they faultily thought that she was Angela.

She must be used to it and should have come to the conclusion that trying to correct the issue is just a waste of her time. So she focussed herself on doing other things. Whether they realize the truth or not, it has nothing to do with her.

She started by saying, "Your physical trainer, Mrs. Blazewood should have already told you about the secret realm. As first-year students you have the eligibility to enter the dungeon but only thirty of you can enter".

"This would decided at the end of the semester. So no one would know who can enter and who can't. So even if you believe that you can't enter the secret realm, you should have the knowledge regarding the secret realm, not just this one but others as well because you may get a chance to enter other realms when the time comes".

"So you should always be prepared for it".

Celine continued, "Though those other secret realms, I can't tell you anything, there should be some commonalities. About the secret realm that you can enter I can tell you a lot".

"First the top monster is supposed to be Tier-5. This was estimated as such based on the maximum rank the portal allows inside. Only Tier-4 and below ranks can enter the secret realm. After promoting to Tier-5, the portal wouldn't let people enter the realm".

"From what was observed in other secret realms, the maximum rank of the monsters would be a rank higher than the rank that the portal allows to enter".

One of the idiots interrupted her, "Teacher, has no one ever checked upon it?" he asked.

"No one did", she replied.

The students were confused by that answer. Even I did. Unless the reason is as I speculated, there would be no reason for not finding out the rank of the top monsters.

Celine continued to speak seeing our confused faces, "There is a restriction on the secret realm. Only people who are seventeen and under can enter the realm. The top one can reach is peak Tier-4 before they can enter the realm".

"It means they have to pass four promotion missions. You may not know this but as you rank up, the promotion missions would increase in difficulty. Not only this, many faced some weird promotion missions that may appear easy on the paper but difficult to complete".

"I know a person who was stuck at peak Tier-2 for years because he couldn't complete his promotion mission. The mission he got was to kill a monster. The issue was that the monster rank was only Tier-3 but the place where this particular monster appears".

"It appears only in a particular dungeon. This dungeon was an S-rank dungeon which has even Tier-5 monsters. So he did what anyone would do. He hired some mercenaries to get rid of other monsters. With their help, he was able to get his hands on the monster and defeated it but it didn't record as completion".

"He later understood that he has to complete the dungeon on his own in order to get that monster and then kill it. Only then the promotion mission would be considered as completed".

Hearing that, the students gasped. If they ever faced such a mission, no matter how talented they were before, they had to settle for mediocracy at the end. They can't accept that.

No one can accept that.

Even if I can't accept it, what can I do? What can they do?

I had to accept one such request. I shivered when I learned that it was not a one-time thing. In records, there was someone who completed a weird mission once and thought that was it.

He even completed one more mission but the next rank-up mission was weird again. It was at this time that he failed and stuck there forever. It was noted that the difficulty increased too along with the weirdness of the mission.

Seeing the pitiful faces of the students, Celine didn't stop and elaborate. It was not her duty. She already gave a lot of information to them. Whether they can find more or not, that doesn't concern her.

She continued to teach the class about the secret realm and all secret realms in general. What to expect there and more than anything how to survive there.

Ah, finally the boring theory class is over. I almost fell asleep but for change, she seems nicer when compared to Angela.

Though they are both fire class, they are different. I heard that usually fire class people get angry quickly and would be explosive from the get-go.

Celine is definitely different when compared to the usual introduction.

Anyway, now that the class is done, I should prepare for tomorrow's training. After tomorrow, there is training with Angela. She was a bit disappointed that I slacked off my training.

Though I gave a good reason that she accepted, I don't think that she would let me off. So I need to be prepared for the personal training or I may suffer in the end.
